The Society, founded in 1821, cares for British seafarers' orphaned boys and girls in the well-known Newland Homes, or subsidises them with their widowed mothers throughout the country. More than five hundred such children are supported each week; after-care, holidays, and family welfare schemes are also provided together with homes for aged sea farers or their widows.
